SAD: Bollywood actress beheaded by colleagues

Meenakshi Thapar

I saw this story on a fellow blogger's site and had to share it. It is really sad though. No one should have to die this young and under such harsh conditions.

Here is how it was reported:

A
young Bollywood star, Meenakshi Thapar, has allegedly been kidnapped and
beheaded by two fellow actors.The
26-year-old actress met Amit Jaiswal and his lover Preeti Surin on the set of
her latest film, 'Heroine', The Daily Telegraph reports. It was there that
Jaiswal and Surin heard of her family's wealth, and allegedly hatched a plot to
kidnap her. Click below to continue reading...

The
duo are said to have invited Thapar to a small town on the Nepalese border,
where they took her hostage and demanded 1.5 million Rupees (£18,000) from her
parents, and threatened to force her into pornography if they were not paid.

Although Thapar's parents are thought to have transferred
some money to their daughter's captors, the young star was killed soon
after.

A
detective working on the case told The Telegraph some of the harrowing
details:

"She was stranguled in a hotel and her body was hacked into pieces and thrown in a
water tank. They threw her head from a moving bus while travelling back to
Mumbai.”
